storyline Mayor Queen held a press conference: he had no political aspirations higher than the position he currently held; half his staff had quit (or had been fired) over the "Willobeigh Renovation Project," gay marriage was not a question - the laws of Star City said the mayor could marry any two persons. He said mass weddings would be held each Friday, but only if the participants had co-habitated in Star City for two weeks prior. With all the media outlets in the city gone, he planned on getting attention from elsewhere. He promised to get Star City back on its feet.
A "situation" arose at The Wall (a wall erected to help move heavy equipment into the city / keep the poor isolated - Queen had promised to tear it down). Green Arrow appeared, stopping the rumors of his death. He stopped the police from opening fire on the demonstrators and got them to safety.
Queen headed back to his office to make a statement about GA. Inside, he found Deathstroke.

Deathstroke hit Queen's right-hand-man with nerve toxin. Ollie was hit by a dart. He was able to pull it loose and detonate a charge in his desk. Deathstroke was thrown into the wall behind him. Ollie, seemingly prepared for him, pulled out a bow and attacked his would-be assassin. Deathstroke realized he'd been set up when he was hit with a huge adhesive arrow and dumped into a pit. Queen, now in costume, jumped in after him and pulled out a sword. Wilson realized he'd retrained himself in the last year and attempted to flee. Atop the pit, the National Guard waited for him to make a move. Deathstroke had been defeated.

Artist(s) Scott McDaniel, Andy Owens
storyline News broke that Green Arrow and Brick were fighting together and that Speedy had joined them. As their fight with the zombies raged on, a news show debated on how long Queen would stay in office before being removed. Some believed he was a savior, some an abomination.
Green Lantern (Jordan) arrived to lend a hand against the zombies. He gathered up 156 of them. They took them to STAR Labs; GL offered to removed the wall - Ollie declined. As Speedy got ready to leave, Ollie asked about Connor again.
Oliver Queen visited with Theodore Davis, head of the Willobeigh Consortium. He confronted the man by telling him he knew he was behind the assassination attempt and the bad drugs in the Glades. He had proof - one of the Senior VPs came to Queen with the dirt. Instead of having them all arrested, Queen made demands (or rather blackmail).
Slade Wilson was sentenced to life and placed in Alcatraz (which had been refurbished into a meta prison). Inside, he met up with Constantine Drakon, who had inside dirt on Queen / GA.

Notes, references to time, and chronology:
Oliver Queen was elected mayor of Star City.
